municipal birds
chirping wildly with
the melting snow

friday nights drift
into saturdays
slow mornings

brunch on the block
in the 80's

"i wanna dance with somebody"
i wanna split pancakes with somebody

mani/pedi kiss
see you laters

air plant surprise
and unplayed jukebox
entries

coffee shakes and
crack pie
and
coffee stout near Tuxedo park

romantic light
and
romantic conversation
about
the romantics we both are
to
each other

steak and mac and cheese and
brussel sprouts
stinky liquor and
elevator bathrooms
and
cab rides to the bedroom.

man, we're so good at
weekending.

I'm bursting

saturday mid afternoon
carried by the light
and your arms
and 3pm urges

we move in ways
we move in wants
we move
until we are still
but yearning for more


and so now
among the thoughts of
Get Out hand holding
Iona leg rubbing
Full Circle knee bumping
Greenpoint Fish and Lobster food sharing
NYBG Orchid evening photographing
and
Sunday Morning snuggling

are

two playlists
after
chance elevator encounters
with
missed opportunities
two racing hearts
behind closed doors.

this heart rate monitor did not sign up for this.

circles and circles and circles and circles
around the upper east side

the humid lemurs sleep

penguin smiles
and
pig hairdos

it's no shirt volleyball weather
in mid February

perfect for slow apple picking portrait strolls
and
cold rock sitting stories of the mental health of art

4 hours is so long to wait
to
kiss him again.

FDR drive memories
to Troy
The Sopranos
The Great Bridge

he helps me exit the car.


Oscar Nominated Animated Shorts
at
Alamo
with
boozy shakes and
eating so quickly
so that
i can hold
his hand
again.
